    Restaurants

    O'Reilly's Pub

    Open Table

    The Spanish Club

    For several years I worked at 1250 Broadway, a mere block from this pub and I often had lunch here. My favorite was the Chicken Cordon Blue. close to Macy's and Herald Square on 31st Strret Between Broaway and 6th.

    Located on 14th Street a short distance from 8th Ave and an easy place to reach by Subway I visit this club whenever I am in NY. You can find the building easily given the Spanish Flag displayed outside and there are two restaurants both in the basement. The fancier and full menued is on the right as you enter the basement. I actually enjoy earting in the rear bar area with a more "relaxed" and Spanish bar atmosphere.
